-Horrible raises (1-3% yearly) and promotions (5-7% if you're lucky) -Horrible 401k ($900-1,200 per year with no percentage match) -Horrible yearly bonus (around $3-6k yearly while other companies pay $7-10k) -Horrible mid and senior pay (software developers making $80-90k is a joke while market pays $100-110k+) -Out of date technology so you can't build skills
